Eltham Veterinary Practice - Careers - Respect, Compassion, Teamwork

This was my first veterinary job as a new graduate, and I learned a great deal in the four years I was at Eltham Vet Practice. The purpose built hospital is well equipped and maintained, with all the latest tech to support efficient and rewarding clinical work ups. Steve & Gus offer quite different skill sets, and are both great clinical and business mentors, supported by a highly skilled and cohesive nursing and reception team. One unique feature of this practice are the clients – they really are the very best, and make the veterinary work so enjoyable! The practice is also invested in continuing education for staff, and I especially appreciated the flexibility and support I received as I completed my Masters while working full time. Would recommend this practice to any new graduate or experienced vet.
